Soul Song

For Now,

an April snow, 

transfixed,

running in the forest 

 

For Now,

an April snow,

wonderstruck,

running in the forest

 

For Now,

an April snow,

falling,

floating in the forest 

 

For Now,

an April snow,

illuminating,

blanketing the forest,

merging,

I dissolve,

washed into the pine and the bark,

shedding layers of darkness

 

For Now,

an April snow, 

satori,

savoring the forest,

juxtaposed,

I dissolve,

washed into the leaves and plants,

forest shield compiling

 

For Now
an April snow,

unbreakable,

evaporating into the forest,

I dissolve,

washed into the air and the wind,

 

forest freeing,

 

For Now
